Lesson goals

By the end you will…

  • Use 'both … and …' to talk about two things that are true together.
  • Use 'neither … nor …' and 'neither of us / them' to make shared negatives.
  • Use 'either … or …' to offer two possibilities, and 'either' in negatives ('I don't … either').
  • React naturally to what others say: 'So do I / Neither do I / Me too / Me neither / I do / I don't.'
